This is a simple mod with the objective of applying retro game design to the glider.

This mod changes the following:

• Disables pitch affecting glide direction;
• Displays a new Glide Power bar when the glider is active, which can be hidden in the config file;
• While gliding:
  • Glide Power increases forward speed and decreases downward speed;
  • Holding the Walk forward key causes the player to dive;
    • While diving, the player's downward speed increases;
    • Downward speed is converted to Glide Power, up to a set conversion threshold;
  • Holding the Walk backward key causes the player to brake;
    • While braking, Glide Power, forward speed and downward speed all rapidly decrease;
    • Breaking with a large amount of forward speed causes lift.

Upon running the mod, an altgliderimplementation.json config file will be created or updated in the game's ModConfig directory. The available options are:

• show_bar: true to show the Glide Power bar, otherwise false;
• sneak_to_dive: true to use Sneak (instead of Walk forward) to dive, otherwise false;
• jump_to_brake: true to use Jump (instead of Walk backward) to brake, otherwise false;
• glide_while_climbing: true to allow gliding while climbing, otherwise false.

Note: Due to client-side dependencies, this mod may cause minor jittering in multiplayer when another player is climbing or gliding.
